About this app
Music League lets you share and discover music (and rediscover some forgotten faves) by competing to determine the best songs for a particular theme! If you want to discover new music, you will, all while you share songs you’re passionate about. With some luck, you can claim to have better taste in music than your friends, family or coworkers. You can even play with someone from the other side of the planet! Music League fans play for many different reasons …to win, to reminisce, to reconnect, to get to know each other. But also to discover new tunes and rediscover older favorites by looking at music in a totally new way. Music League players will submit a song for each round's "theme". Every round presents a new way to think about your music and a reason to share the songs you love, the songs you always thought deserved more love, or the songs you find that perfectly fit the theme. …
App details
What you can learn from Music League
Every shipping app on the App Store has gone through the same decisions you're working through right now: which screenshot goes first, what caption sits over it, which device frame to show, what color the background should be. The 3 screenshots above are Music League's answers to those questions — they're public, they're real, and they made it through Apple's review.
What the numbers say: Music League runs a light set with one background colour (#E4FCFC) carried across every screenshot — the listing reads as a single poster when the shots sit side by side in search results. The accent colour we picked up, #9C04C4, is the one to reuse for badges, arrows and highlighted words if you borrow this look. Hit Use this style to open the editor with these exact colours and drop your own screenshot in.
Notice the first screenshot in particular. It's the one users see in search results and on the product page, and it's where most apps spend their best caption and tightest design. Look at the proportion of background to phone, where the text sits, what one thing the image is trying to communicate.
